HollymountOutbuilding · 1.2 mi

Explorer Tom Hollymount outbuilding in Glenboy hears the house gossip through its thick sandstone walls all night long. The cantilevered stairs are fancy enough to make your knees weak. Go before the tourists find it and take a quiet snap of its quiet dignity.

Explorer Tom Fortland House in Lissinagroagh was once ruled by a goat who ate the roof tiles and called them snacks. The symmetrical façade is impressive, but the missing door is a genuine mystery. Stand still and listen, the wind still carries its bleat.
